Workout Wednesday
Posted by leah on Apr 30, 2008
Wednesday is workout day. I’ll post something to do with exercise on Wednesdays.
To get started, here’s a basic workout schedule anyone could use. I’m basing it on the guideline of 60 minutes of moderate exercise per day most days.
- Monday - 30 minute walk or jog, 30 minute strength workout
- Tuesday - 60 minute mind-body workout, like yoga or pilates
- Wednesday - 60 minute cardio workout, could be a dance class, aerobics video, playing a sport like basketball, or as simple as another walk
- Thursday - 30 minute walk or jog, 30 minute strength workout
- Friday - 60 minute mind-body workout, like yoga or pilates
- Saturday - 60 minute cardio workout
- Sunday - recovery day, try to fit in a fun activity that gets you off the couch, but nothing too strenuous.
Thus is just an example of how you could schedule your exercise to get in about an hour a day. You don’t have to vary it this way, but this way you get some cardio almost every day, two strength workouts a week, and two mind-body workouts a week.
Don’t forget to spend a few minutes warming up and cooling down!
